Lunch on the Go

If you’re not already in a same-old-lunch slump, maybe you’re in a going-out-to-eat-for-lunch slump or an I’ll-just-grab-something-quick-and-cheap slump. As the old saying goes, “Good. Fast. Cheap. Pick two”. We’d like to think these recipes are all three of those things and that they could even help change up your lunchtime routine. They’ve been created with an on-the-go lifestyle in mind, meaning when it comes to quick prep, portability, taste and affordability, they check all the boxes.
